Glacier Walk Tours in Alaska

There’s something alien yet entirely magical about a glacier landscape, stretching as far as the eye can see, with huge chunks of ice glinting vibrant shades of blue in the sunlight. It’s no wonder so many visitors want to experience a glacier walk during their Alaska cruise vacation. If this is your cruise bucket list activity, check out our selection of Juneau Mendenhall glacier tours that will have you gasping and reaching for your camera to capture this scene for years to come.

One of the best ways to take part in an awe-inspiring glacier walk is the Mendenhall Glacier Ice Adventure Tour. There are only so many permits granted, making this an exclusive once-in-a-lifetime excursion. Paddle across Mendenhall Lake towards the glacier, which seems to grow ever larger as you get closer. Hike along the rocky moraines created by the glacier as you approach the vast glacier, appreciating the beauty of this ever-changing natural wonder. 

For a bird’s eye view of Mendenhall Glacier, join our Helicopter Glacier Trek. Board your helicopter for views of snow-capped mountains - and, of course, the glacier -  that will take your breath away. On landing, you’ll get to trek directly on the glacier’s surface, appreciating just how many different structures make up the huge glacier formation. 

If you want to incorporate a helicopter ride, an airboat experience, and walking on a glacier, the Taku Glacier Adventure by Air, Water & Ice tour is the best choice for you. You’ll be thrilled, will feel completely awe-inspired, and will get as close to nature as possible on this three-in-one experience that’s hard to beat.
